Answer to Question 1

B
Implementation is the fourth step of the nursing process and involves the execution of the nursing plan of care formulated during the planning phase of the nursing process.

Answer to Question 2

2. Alcohol stimulates gastric acid secretion.

Rationale:
Alcohol stimulates gastric acid secretion. This excess acid will promote gastric irritation. Tobacco is not linked to reduced effectiveness of gastric ulcer medications but does delay healing. Caffeine is not usually associated with abdominal pain, but it does increase the risk of peptic ulcer disease.
